also a bible from the first lady's family as well as a lincoln bible. so a lot of history surrounding all of that. >> and of course this mall in washington is the site where your father gave one of his most famous addresses, the "i have a dream speech." what does this place mean to you and for the civil rights movement? >> first of all, i should say today, of course, is is part of the day of activities of service. dad gave his life serving other, and millions, hopefully, of americans will be engaged in service throughout this weekend. the hope, though, is that people will be engaged throughout the year. now, what it means, quite interestingly, is the fact that dad gave a speech as the lincoln memorial. the president is sworn in at the opposite end on the king holiday, i mean, you can't get any more. but we cannot forget about the fact that dad gave his life for the least of these god's children. and the fact is in this nation there are millions of people living in poverty, and we've got a big challenge to figure out how to create a scenario to lift all

lincoln in 1865. he talked about a lasting peace. this was right before the civil war ended right before he was assassinated, as well. it goes down in history as an amazing second inaugural address. but this one is tough, not just because it's generally a heavy lift but also because for president obama, it's situated between this bruisie ining fisc cliff battle and another one that is right around the corner here in about a month over the debt ceiling and the budget. he can't ignore those fakes. you know, he has to acknowledge those in a way. we expect he will. >> we he will see if president obama can break the mold in this second inaugural speech. >> it would be fun to see. that would be amazing to see a speech that is a historic second one. but the odds are against lim. >> the bar is set high. thanks so much, brianna. >> besides the inauguration, there are big stories we're following for you today. among them the developments in the terror attack in algeria involving american hostages. that crisis does now appear to be over. accord

msnbc's chris matthews gushed there's so much of lincoln in obama's speech, with one exception. lincoln's second inaugural speech included this famous line "with malice toward none, with charity for all, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds." arguably there was little of that in obama's speech, no extended talk of working together, of bipartisanship, but there was a not so veiled slam at republican paul ryan, congressional budget chairman and former vice presidential candidate who once said 60% of americans are takers because they take more in government benefits than they pay in. and about those benefits, mr. president? >> they do not make us a nation of takers, they free us to take the risks that make this country great. >> so the talkback question for you this morning, obama's speech, what was your takeaway, facebook.com/carolcnn, or tweet me @carolcnn. your responses later this hour. i'll be right back. a hybrid? most are just no fun to drive. now, here's one that will make you feel alive. meet the five-passenger ford c-max hybrid. c-
